Re: More compiler warnings

Note: When there is a warning about "int format, 'something else int
compatible' argument" then almost always the correct fix is to make the
format "long int" and typecast the argument accordingly. This to account
for 64 bit architectures. But be warned to not typecast away unsigned
qualifiers..
